There's a thread in gentoo-core from 2004 with regards to branding and the 
outcome was to refrain from it. I don't have a problem, when we do this for 
live iso's, but generally I strongly dislike it. Users don't choose their 
distro because of it, so it's just unnecessary bloat. And given that we tout 
Gentoo a meta distribution, encouraging others to build on it, there's no 
point forcing them to have to clean out the Gentoo brand, before they 
actually can use it.
